// To use, define a class that implements your specific service API (e.g.,
// FooImpl to implement a service named Foo). Then implement an
// InterfaceFactory<Foo> that binds instances of FooImpl to
// InterfaceRequest<Foo>s and register that on the connection like this:
//
//   connection->AddService(&factory);
//
// Or, if you have multiple factories implemented by the same type, explicitly
// specify the interface to register the factory for:
//
//   connection->AddService<Foo>(&my_foo_and_bar_factory_);
//   connection->AddService<Bar>(&my_foo_and_bar_factory_);
//
// The InterfaceFactory must outlive the ApplicationConnection.
